Yeah I don't really find heroku viable at all, apart from the fact that the workflow is a total pain (unless I'm missing something)... the cost is just too much. What's your "cheap" VPS? Fancy a VPS hosted on SSDs for just $5 a month? http://burnaftercompiling.com/nodebb/setting-up-a-nodebb-forum-for-dummies/

yes!
thanks for implementing it.
I asked for it about a month ago.
edit:
but its not working.
it links the gravatar-default.png to http://i1.wp.com//uploads/gravatar-default.png -> not a valid link
Thanks should be fixed in https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/commit/1a9ab9d1d2fc273eb7875a40e7bde6d9dec7ac5c, and yes images need to be accessible on port 80 or 443.
